Jakob Brodsky, Senior Engineer, Applied High Voltage, LLC

Jacob Brodsky built his career around control systems. He worked on many aspects of SCADA and industrial control systems (ICS), from the earliest stages of design through decommissioning. His interest in cybersecurity started while designing a new SCADA control center in 1999. At that time, there weren't many security guidelines, even in the IT world, so with a bit of trial and lots of error, Jake learned about security the hard way.

He has contributed to various standards committees, in particular - the DNP3 Protocol Technical Committee. A registered Professional Engineer of Control Systems in the state of Maryland, Jake is presently a senior engineer at Applied High Voltage LLC. In addition to his committee work, he co-authored and co-edited the Handbook of SCADA/Control Systems Security, published by CRC Press; and is a contributor to Project SHINE.
